Development of a pulsed heating technique for stability testing in the westinghouse LCP coil

  • 1. Oak Ridge Natl Lab, Tenn

Description

A pulsed heating technique applicable to the stability testing of cable-in-conduit conductors cooled by flowing supercritical helium is reported. The technique utilizes induction heaters installed externally to the conductor sheat and powered by a resonating capacitive discharge supply. The application of this technique to the stability testing of subsized, and full-sized prototypical samples of the Westinghouse Large Coil Program (LCP) conductor is discussed and modifications for adapting this method for testing in the Westinghouse LCP coil are recommended. These magnets are for fusion applications. 4 refs
